Tooth attrition and continuing eruption in a romano-british population

Archives of Oral Biology, 1982
Cement-enamel junction to alveolar crest (CEJ-AC) distances were measured in Romano-British skulls. Measurements were also made of attrition patterns. The patterns of the two measurements were similar in each group, suggesting that teeth continued to erupt and CEJ-AC alone is misleading as a measurement of bone loss and may not relate to the extent of ...

Interaction between Attrition,Abrasion and Erosion in Tooth Wear

2006
Tooth wear is the result of three processes: abrasion (wear produced by interaction between teeth and other materials), attrition (wear through tooth-tooth contact) and erosion (dissolution of hard tissue by acidic substances). A further process (abfraction) might potentiate wear by abrasion and/or erosion.

The Estimation of Tooth Age from Attrition of the Occlusal Surface

Medicine, Science and the Law, 1989
Age estimation in unidentified bodies is inaccurate. Usually only a broad range of ages, such as 20–30 years or 30–50 years, can be given, especially when postmortem change has occurred. Thus there is a real need in routine forensic practice for greater accuracy. Takei (1970, 1981), looked at the relationship between teeth and age by using the ‘Theory

Australian aboriginal tooth succession, interproximal attrition, and Begg's theory

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1990
In 1954, P.R. Begg analyzed interproximal attrition as a prehistorically universal mechanism to reduce tooth size. With modern processed diets and the virtual disappearance of constant interproximal attrition, Begg asserted, teeth remain too large for the arches and become crowded.

The natural history of deciduous tooth attrition in hominoids

Journal of Human Evolution, 1991
Abstract The degree of attrition on the mandibular deciduous teeth of 35 great apes, between 6 months and 5 years of age, was recorded by direct observation of each tooth. Specimens of Gorilla show markedly advanced attrition in relation to specimens Pan or Pongo of similar age.

Molar tooth attrition in a selected group of Nigerians

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, 1975
ABSTRACT A study of the degree and gradient of attrition was undertaken on 352 molar teeth of 88 selected Nigerian subjects. A method for the quantification of attrition experience per molar tooth is described. There is a close correlation between age and the degree of attrition of the first molar.

The Interactions between Attrition, Abrasion and Erosion in Tooth Wear

2014
Tooth wear is the result of three processes: abrasion (wear produced by interaction between teeth and other materials), attrition (wear through tooth-tooth contact) and erosion (dissolution of hard tissue by acidic substances). A further process (abfraction) might potentiate wear by abrasion and/or erosion.

Replication of human occlusal tooth attrition surfaces for scanning electron microscopic study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1991
SummarySilicone negative replicas of dentine islands exposed by occlusal attrition were examined on extracted human teeth using the scanning electron microscope. Because the details of the dentinal tubules were reproducible on the silicone impression, the replication technique was applied in vivo to occlusal attrition to demonstrate patent dentinal ...

Tooth wear: attrition, erosion, and abrasion.

Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985), 2003
Attrition, erosion, and abrasion result in alterations to the tooth and manifest as tooth wear. Each classification acts through a distinct process that is associated with unique clinical characteristics. Accurate prevalence data for each classification are not available since indices do not necessarily measure one specific etiology, or the study ...

The accuracy of simple ordinal scoring of tooth attrition in age assessment

Forensic Science International, 1990
Tooth wear is frequently used as a method of ageing skeletal remains. Fundamental to this method is the ability to measure the amount of tooth wear. The Brothwell chart based on the Miles method of ageing, uses simple ordinal scoring and is frequently used by archeologists. The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate the accuracy of simple
